Read MorePrema Designs is a a full service wedding and event design company that handles every aspect of creating the esthetic of an event and making our clients inspirations come to life.
We are a team made up of individuals that are bursting with creativity and an eagerness to push floral boundaries. Our goal and reason for doing what we do is the "goosies moment": when our clients see the space for the first time (untouched by guests) filled with all the dreams and custom designs made just for them. It’s one of the most gratifying moments you can witness.
During our creative process you will find us taking dance breaks or singing at the top of our lungs. Our light and fun-filled environment is necessary while making pieces made to celebrate whichever special event our clients hired us for. And we are the place filled with the snacks! Snack breaks are a must in life in general.
This space is the space of my dreams. It embodies the exact feel of what Prema is with the opportunity for growth. The Fort is a community filled with creativity and small businesses that just want to do what they do and have fun doing it. Plus the owner Justin is probably one of the best landlords I have met. You can tell he loves this building and wants his tenants to be comfortable, successful and happy. Never leaving.
